NOTICE. 


These  "RuDTMENTS"  are  compiled  on  the  plan  of  Ahn's  larger  "Method." 
The  elements  of  the  German  language  are  here  presented  in  their  utmost  simplicity, 
compactly  arranged  in  easy  gradations  from  the  simplest  forms  to  the  more  com- 
plex, the  whole  carefully  adapted  to  the  understanding  of  young  pupils. 

In  preparing  this  edition,  some  important  improvements  have  heen  introduced 
to  lighten  the  difiBculty  of  pronunciation  and  spelling,  and  to  impart  a/ree  and  cor- 
rect use  of  German  Script.  Some  interesting  reading  lessons  have  also  been  added, 
to  engage  the  attention  of  pupils  already  familiar  with  the  rudimentary  parts 
adapted  to  beginners.  Thus,  this  little  work  is  rendered  still  more  worthy  of  the' 
high  reputation  it  has  enjoyed  for  many  years.

of  water  and  some  bread  and  cheese.  My  aunt  has 
bought  four  cravats,  six  pair  of  gloves  and  a  dozen 
pair  of  stockings.  The  shoemaker  has  made  a  pair 
of  shoes  for  Louisa  and  two  pair  of  boots  for  William.

bought  twelve  ells.  Ferdinand  has  bought  a  pound
